LEGO fight Against Chinese counterfeit LEGO

Comments

That one is easy. It is because LEGO own all of the faker companies that make these minifigures (and try to hide it by doing the odd legal dispute) and want them to become well known for their minifigure production. So they purposely didn't produce one of the key scenes in LOTR to force people to use them to get their Gondor soldiers. At the same time they can produce minifigures for themes like Walking Dead and Game of Thrones without affecting their brand image of being kid friendly. ---End of conspiracy theory---

So, this thread has me wondering about Trexit, why Lego never made a Minas Tirith model, what makes brand new carpet look mucky, what I would sing if invited to tea at a Hobbit's hole, and the crappy DVDs I have in my garage (there are quite a few).

Thank you Brickset - you never fail... :-)

Wow... I didn't notice until now that Brickset is a phonetic anagram of Brexit.

I visited a festival today and was disappointed to see a stall selling nothing but Lepin.

Interesting. That's such a tight space. I guess if you were selling Lepin, that would be a perfect place to sell it ;) Although, would you have to reach underneath the stall to make the transaction or is the door wide open?

That's absolutely true. And it is a good strategy. I don't own remote property for this reason. I would be too worried about someone breaking in and vandalizing, or squatting and forcing me to go through the legal process to evict them. For me, the benefit of remote property doesn't outweigh the costs.
